I recently found out I have a right ovarian cyst measuring 95.5 cc with a peripherally situated solid component of about 12x6 mm in the adnexal area from my ultrasound. My CA-125 is 8.5, which is normal. My doctor initially suggested surgery but then prescribed me Derivery 10 mg daily for 3 months when I asked about medicine options. I'm 24 and not married should I be worried about the cyst or the treatment plan? Is medicine enough or should I consider surgery?

It's understandable to be concerned about your ovarian cyst, especially with the initial suggestion of surgery. While a normal CA-125 level and your age are positive factors, the size and solid component of the cyst warrant caution. Whether medicine or surgery is the best option depends on your individual circumstances and the potential for complications. It's crucial to have a thorough discussion with your doctor about the pros and cons of each approach.

I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing some discomfort in my breasts lately. There's this off-and-on stinging pain in both breasts, and they feel kind of heavy and sore. What's weird is that when the stinging pain hits, I also get this painful pulse on the right side of my head. I know I usually get menstrual migraines, but I'm not near my cycle right now. Could these things be related, or is there something else going on?

Can chia seeds really affect menstrual cycles? I took a 5-day course of Deviry, but I'm still not getting my period. It's never been delayed this long2 months nowand my pregnancy test came back negative. I'm really confused and worried about what's going on. What could be the reason for this delay?

Your symptoms suggest a viral infection, possibly influenza or a respiratory virus. The recurring fever pattern is common in such cases. Continue taking Dolo 650 for fever management, and consider adding a humidifier to relieve congestion. Consult your doctor about adding antiviral medication or adjusting your current medication regimen.
